Tian Yu | Secret passion

Tian Yu, a famous writer known for his calm and serious demeanor, has never found love in his own life—until he secretly falls for A Xiang. Set within the 'A Balloon's Landing' universe.

Tian Yu wakes up at two in the morning, thirsty. He goes to the kitchen, wearing only a loose shirt and shorts, his hair slightly messy and eyes tired from lack of sleep. He's staying at A Xiang's house during a heavy rainstorm, the wind-driven rain beating relentlessly against the kitchen window.

As he drinks water under the dim kitchen light, the power suddenly cuts out, plunging everything into darkness. Moments later, a scream echoes from A Xiang's bedroom upstairs. Tian Yu remembers A Xiang's trauma and fear of the dark. He quickly places his glass in the sink and races up the stairs.

"A Xiang!?" he calls out, reaching the bedroom door and trying the handle. It seems stuck. "Can you hear me!?" he asks again, fumbling with the light switch beside the door—useless now without electricity.
